The next day, Qin Su woke up early as usual. After tidying up, she was about to go downstairs to prepare breakfast. Unexpectedly, someone came earlier than her—
When she walked to the staircase, she saw Zhou Zimo sitting at the dining table, deep in thought. When he heard footsteps coming from upstairs, he silently raised his head.
A beautiful figure appeared in his vision, and his eyes immediately lit up. “You’re up. Come and have breakfast. After breakfast, we’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.”
Zhou Zimo had not slept for almost the entire night. He was waiting for the day to arrive, he wanted them to quickly get it done.
However, he was very energetic now. Even though he had not slept for the entire night, he did not look tired. He was probably in a good mood.
Qin Su thought for a moment and nodded. As she walked down the stairs, she said, “Then let’s hurry up. I still have to rush to a meeting after I’m done. We should be done by the morning, right? I have a meeting scheduled for the afternoon. It’s quite important.”
Qin Su was also a person who was very pa.s.sionate about work. Zhou Zimo’s decision was too sudden, so she was not quite used to it.
“I can finish it in the morning.”
As Zhou Zimo spoke, he poured her a cup of hot milk.
Qin Su put her briefcase aside and sat down quietly. “The meeting should be over by four in the afternoon, you…”
“I’ll go pick you up and return to the old residence at night. Tomorrow is the weekend, so there’s no need to rush.”
Zhou Zimo quickly arranged everything, he did not want her to worry too much.
“Mm, you can arrange it. I might be a little busy these days. You can worry more about the wedding. I will do my best to cooperate.”
Qin Su did not have much experience in this matter and did not know how to help.
“Don’t worry, I will be there for you.”
Zhou Zimo’s eyes were filled with gentleness. As he replied, he moved the snacks in front of her. “Hurry up and eat. Don’t let it get cold.”
Qin Su nodded and lowered her head to quietly enjoy it.
After breakfast, the two of them set off and headed straight for the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The two of them arrived quite early and had already made an appointment with Director Chen. They were only missing a signature and a photo. When they arrived, he was already waiting for them.
The entire process went smoothly. They arrived around nine o’clock and received their marriage certificate around eleven o’clock.
However, as she held the fiery red marriage certificate, Qin Su felt that it was a little surreal for a moment. She actually felt that it was a little hot.
“Have you read it well? Take a few more glances!”
Just as Qin Su was flipping through it, Zhou Zimo’s voice sounded from the side.
Qin Su was in a daze for a moment before she turned her head and looked up at him.
Seeing this, Zhou Zimo had already reached out to take the marriage certificate from her hand and kept it in his pocket. “If you’re done reading it then let me keep it for you. This thing won’t have the chance to be needed in the future.”
Qin Su frowned and was about to say something, but Zhou Zimo continued, “You’re finally married to me. From now on, you, Qin Su, will be my wife.”
As he said this, Zhou Zimo quietly looked at Qin Su. His deep voice was a little hoa.r.s.e as he tried his best to suppress it. He reached out to pull her over. “Qin Su, don’t worry. I won’t let you suffer in the time to come.”
“The time to come will be a long one. Whether you can do it or not, I’ll be watching.”
Qin Su glanced at him and took a deep breath. “Now, it’s all done. It looks like it’s almost time for lunch. Let’s go. I’ll treat you to a meal as a celebration for our newly wed status.”
“It’s my honor!”
Zhou Zimo smiled and extended his long arm. He quickly held her hand. “However, the first meal of the partnership should be my treat no matter what. Your husband is a very elegant gentleman. You can’t ruin his image.”
Hearing this, Qin Su raised her eyebrows. “Elegant gentleman?”
“Yes, an elegant gentleman. Let’s go!” Zhou Zimo replied and pulled Qin Su forward.
Qin Su did not expect her marriage to happen so easily. Thinking about it, it did not seem as hard to accept as she had imagined. Moreover, she seemed to be curious about her future life.
What would her life with Zhou Zimo be like?
As she thought about it, she suddenly turned her gaze away and looked at the man beside her indifferently. What she saw was Zhou Zimo’s side profile, which was focused on driving. After thinking for a moment, she suddenly spoke, “We’re married now, but I’ve always had a question in my heart, I want to ask you about it.”
“What question? Tell me.” Zhou Zimo replied magnanimously.
“Why are you so insistent on marrying me? If it was only because of your so-called life-saving grace, I don’t think you’d really take it to heart. The act of marrying someone to repay another doesn’t quite fit with us. You don’t have to fool me.”
Qin Su still could not help but ask.
Hearing this, Zhou Zimo suddenly smiled. He glanced at her from the side and said with a smile, “Looks like you’re still quite persistent on this question, just like how I’ve always been persistent in my heart towards you.”
“What’s the answer then?”
Qin Su wanted to see what kind of answer Zhou Zimo would give. After all these years there were definitely countless women around him who were more outstanding than her. In her eyes, Zhou Zimo’s persistence was a little strange.
Naturally, Zhou Zimo still did not dare to talk about that matter, “I’ve taken a liking to your stunning looks and your talent. I like everything about you, Qin Su. From the first time I saw you, you were destined to be extraordinary in my heart. At first, those feelings may not be love, but those feelings grew day by day. All these years, I’ve never forgotten you.”
Zhou Zimo was speaking the truth.
“Are you just answering me half-heartedly? But, it doesn’t matter if you don’t want to say it. It’s not that important. We’re married anyway. From now on, we’ll be living together for a very long time. I only have two requests. First, I won’t be a housewife and can still maintain my own career. Second, I hope that you can be single-minded, loyal to your marriage, and loyal to your family. Can you agree to these two requests?”
Qin Su was still very rational. Even at this moment, she was still able to voice out the considerations in her heart.
As these words fell, Zhou Zimo paused for a moment, and the speed of the car also slowed down. He turned his head and quietly glanced at Qin Su, taking in the seriousness on her face.
Two conditions?
What kind of conditions were these? Even if she did not say it, he would still treat her well and be loyal to her.
He had been in the business world for so many years, so there was nothing that he had not seen before. He was already tired, and he only wanted to be with her and live a good life. This was what he had hoped for.
Of course, he would not stop her from developing her own career. As long as she was happy, he would support her.
